JOE PERK Mrs. Perry, wife ot the soldier pic tured above, recently received a let ter from her husband's commanding officer, commending her husband for being a fine soldier. The letter fol lows: "Dear Mrs. Perry: "In all probability you're wonder ing just why you're the recipient of a letter from your husband's bat talion commander. The reason is really quite simple and very easy to explain. It's only that I would like to tell you of the wonderful work that your husband is doing as a pla toon sergeant in this battalion. "First, though, because I know that, as a wife, you're more inter ested in your husband's welfare as far as health is concerned than you are in the military accomplishments, it gives me great pleasure to tell you. that he is in the best of health and is enjoying himself as much as possible here in England. I might add that it really isn't hard to enjoy oneself here, because despite the fact that the enemy has tried his best to dispose of this lovely coun try, England is still very much on the map, and there are still plenty of sights to see. "As you know, your husband has been in this battalion now for quite some time. It can truly be said that during that time he has always con ducted himself as a gentleman and a true soldier. In his work, in the fifield and in garrison he has shown that he is an excellent leader an4 an instructor of no mean ability, i would like to tell you now that it is indeed a pleasBrev to have men of his calibre serving with me. "Until the opportunity to continue our correspondence presents itself some time in the future, I am, "Sincerely yours, "H. L MAINORO, "Lt. Col. Infantry."

Tell everyone I said "Hi," and that if this, war ever gets over I'll be there in person to tell thei. I'll bring this gadget to a close and say Asta ha vista, JACK MUNNS.
